Will Thala-Thalapathy Repeat The Pongal Treat For Diwali?

Pongal this year was special for Tamil cine goers with the releases of Vijay's Jilla and Ajith's Veeram. Now, it appears like the audience will be treated again, as the Thala-Thalapathy are heading towards repeating the same for coming Diwali!

As we all know, AR Murugadoss has set the Diwali deadline for the release of his next movie with Vijay. Now, Gautham Menon too is eyeing the same time for the release of his flick with Ajith Kumar.

Currently, Illayathalapathy Vijay's film reportedly titled Dheeran is busy in the shooting stage. The film unit is wrapping up key portions in Andhra Pradesh. The 50 percent of the filming has been completed and AR Murugadoss has said that the film is slated for Diwali release.

In the meantime, Ajith Kumar is set to begin his next movie with Gautham Menon at the end of this month. Gautham has planned to finish the shooting within five months and wants to release the flick, which is likely to feature Menon's favourite actress Samantha, for Diwali.

Earlier, Vijay's Jilla and Ajith's Veeram hit the screens on the same day (January 10) for Pongal. Well, if Gautham Menon's plan goes well, it will be a Thala-Thalapathy Diwali for Kollywood fans.
